The interpretation in the rest of this thread is that this man is being a sexist, condescending douchebag to his peers. I hope "overly enthusiastic about your favorite subjects" is better than that.

Fair enough. But it doesn't look like either of those, it's looks like a tutor or study group and they're literally just having a conversation. I guess I'm not surprised some people on lemmy don't know what a conversation among friends looks like.

I dunno, the one in the top right looks like she's seriously reconsidering her life choices...

Yeah i said "a tutor or study group"

Do you even study something if you don't reconsider your life choices at a regular basis?

Neither do you, it seems. Given this is an ad for a university, it's pretty clear to me this is intended to represent some type of group project or study group.

Doesn't imply they're friends at all.

I dunno, I typically made friends with the people I worked on projects and studied with.
